However, using rsync and mkdir allowed me to hack this together in an evening and get it working rather well. If I sat down and wrote a standalone util and reimplimented all the rsync functionality, this would have been more of a week(s) project which I just don't have time for. > Otherwise, I am still perplexed how fluently this works!

How about $3.99 per minute ... :-) Curt. -- Curtis Olson IVLab / HumanFIRST Program FlightGear Project Twin Cities [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Minnesota http://www.menet.umn.edu/~curt http://www.flightgear.org _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
